Klaus didn't object when his mother suggested that Hanna demonstrate what she had learned rather than just describing it like the others. His mother rarely showed interest in his cultivation, except to ensure his happiness, so seeing her enthusiastic about something related to cultivation made Klaus eager to see what it was. Like Kay, Hanna was also an archer, but with the lightning element. She hadn't been the best and brightest like Lily and the others when she first awakened as a warrior, she was only average. With a single passive healing ability and no active skills, Hanna had to rely solely on her class and talent to master her archery skills. She was ordinary at best. But everything changed when she met Klaus. She started training harder, and although she hadn't awakened any new skills or techniques, she was thriving with the class and talent she had originally awakened. Klaus was impressed when she ranked fourth in the regional trial. From then on, she continued to grow, thanks to the skills Miriam had given her. Miriam also provided her with resources, and Klaus did the same. Like with his other friends, he gave her a skill called [Exploding Bolt Piercer]. This skill allows her to mold an arrow with an arrowhead coated in lightning. The arrow also gains a 20% speed enhancement, so when released, it moves very fast. The chaos begins upon impact: when the arrow pierces a target, the arrowhead explodes, releasing a field of lightning that can stun or even kill those close to the explosion. Klaus didn't give them any overly powerful skills from the hundreds he had learned from his past self. He wanted to understand more about their abilities before making any decisions that would impact their lives permanently. Although he wasn't about to spoon-feed them, he also didn't want his friends to be subpar. He was already a dragon; the least he could do was turn his friends into tigers and lions. Now that Oracle was available to the general public, every home had one. Klaus, who was practically a co-creator, had more consoles than he could count. Hanna quickly slipped into one, and soon, she was in the endless trial. Klaus and the others watched as she summoned her bow and waited for the monsters to arrive. Before long, the tides poured in. Hanna waited until they were within 1 km of her before a one-meter-long arrow, crackling with lightning, appeared in her bow. The pointed end—the arrowhead—was entirely made of lightning. Klaus looked at it with a narrowed expression.Nôv(el)B\\jnn 'It looks ordinary yet dangerous,' Klaus thought to himself. "Do you want the truth, or should I lie?" Klaus replied with a grin. "You bastard!" Klaus didn't know how, but despite his quick reaction to escape, his mom managed to grab hold of his ear. What followed was a twist that he knew would leave a mark. A few seconds later, Hanna explained what happened. "The skill works as you described, but somehow, Mom found a way for me to harness the lightning field for a devastating wide-area attack. However, I can only use it once, or when I have over 90% of my qi left. The moment it drops below that, I can't harness the field anymore. So, to use it, I have to start my attacks with it because once my qi drops below that threshold, I lose the ability. But I have a feeling that once I break through, I'll be able to use it at least twice or three times." "That's awesome, sis! I can't wait to see you kick butt during the Union trial," Klaus said with a smile, making his mom puff out her chest—a gesture she probably shouldn't have made, considering the ample asset standing firm on her chest. Klaus narrowed his gaze at his male friends, who were suddenly looking elsewhere entirely. He smiled mischievously and turned to his mom. "Alright, Mom, now that you're an expert in finding skill loopholes, what else are you hiding?" "Well, I discovered I'm an Angel of Death. Can you believe that?" his mom joked, flashing him a smile. "Very funny, Mom. But I'd love to see your wings someday," Klaus replied. "And please, put on a bit more clothing—you're teasing my friends," he added. This time, he managed to escape, dashing off to his room. Miriam noticed Anna and Lily eyeing the direction Klaus ran to and gave them a small smile. She could tell they wanted some alone time with him, but since she was around, they didn't want to make the first move. What they didn't know was that Miriam wanted nothing more than to see them take the final step. But, alas, no one knew what the two of them talked about; they just weren't ready to move that far yet. A while later, Lily and Anna, like sneaky twins, ran off to Klaus's room, trying to be subtle. But Miriam saw them long before they even took a step.
